This gaiwan was handmade by the ruyao and porcelain studio 坑口烧 KengKou.
This piece has a special dark blue glaze on the outside with light azure blue glaze inside.
Ruyao has a glow and a depth that are a result of the ruyao glaze recipes of the studio. When firing the pottery, and as the body expands, crazing appears on the surface of the glaze. These 开片 or "opening cracks," are found on all ruyao and will expand on the glaze with use. They give each piece its unique character.
